Fly fly *buzzz*

I'm back in KL and to my surprise did not fly alone this time! Quite a number of us took the same air asia plane and each of us looked like zombies when we saw each other at the airport. Some of us just finished our last paper while others, like me just didn't sleep. Can't really blame us when our flight was 7 in the morning and check in was at 4am rite? :)

Rush was all I knew for the few days before I flew. Guess it doesnt help when ur hooked on Bejeweled and farming on facebook :) Anyways, think I'm getting used to all the packing. For once, I packed in about 3 hrs and all I had was 1/4 of a big suitcase. Not at all common when overweight has always been a problem when I fly.

Said some goodbyes during dinner as momo is leaving Perth for good and headed off with my coffee buddies Sam and Kenin at South Perth. Another nice place to pakto. Hahaaaa Overlooking the whole cty of Perth, the coffee shop was technically 'floating' on the river. Coffee was good and sticky date pudding was ex but YUMMMYYY alright! :) To kill time, we strolled the river and just admired those big houses and chatted along the way. When ur with two engineers, design and structures seem more interesting than they are. :P

Next destination, Sam's house. She was making marmalade and I can testify its the bestest around! Yummz. Fresh from the pot on handmade bread, never tasted marmalade so nice. Never even think I have ever liked marmalade to start with. Hiaks, if you havent realized, there seemed to be lots of food involved and to tell u da truth, Kenin and I never stopped eating. Must be the wintery weather *angelic look*

Hearts, chats, facebook, strolling around and it was time for us to fly dy. Sometimes I wonder why is there so much drama going on, even when I'm half awake. Haha. The officer who scan and checked our bags were strict and pretty unfriendly, not the norm of what u usually see in Perth. But I guess if u were asked to work at 4 in the morning, I'd guess its understandable.

The drama continued on the plane when I realized they allocated me a middle seat when I paid for a window seat. Dissapointed cos it was my chance to see sunrise on the plane and with the middle seat I couldnt even see the sky lah. Told the air hostess and she said no worries, you guys can move to two seater seat behind. Happily moved over and settled in till a northen China chinese lady started accusing us for taking her seat in a mega loud voice.

By then the plane started moving, and she just wouldnt sit down. The air hostess couldn't understand chinese and even with the lil mandarin I know of all the airplane terms, I tried to ask her to sit down first for safety reasons and we would move later. The air asia plane took off and to my surprise when I glanced at my watch it was 7 o'clock sharp! The plane was on time, if not even slightly earlier and being air asia, that was quite amazing.

For a while, we had some peace. Enjoyed the sunrise sky outseide for a while. It was B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!

The plane was still ascending and the seat belt sign was still on. The aunty started pestering why we are still not moving. Didn't know what to do, we just waited for the air hostess. Apparently, a group of her friends were in front, and they wanted each a row of seats, refusing us to ove back as well. Thing is, those weren't their allocated seats either. The hostess made a deal with them that if she wanted her seat back, all the rest of them wud have to return to their own places as well. So they agreed adn we've got our seats evryone lived happily ever after after that :) haha

Despite the drama, it was one of the nicest trip I took. Not only did we see the sunrise sky, we saw the waves coming in onto the shores, a rainbow and even a plane flying pass the other direction. Not very often do you see all that in a day, so yeah I was happy :)

Rest of the time was just spent hibernating with my seat mate *drumrolls*

In short, here's what's I've been up to in KL so far..

Eat . Sleep . Shop .

Signin off: Everyone around me seems to be going pro with theit lenses. :)

Roaming the streets of Perth :)

I know bloggie has been dead for quite a while now but f you've been wondering what I've been up to lately, I've been catching up with different people and am loving it :)

Yesterday was like a 'guys' day out with Kenin and Luke and today seemed to be a girls day out. Nothing pre-planned but it just so happen to be. Wanna guess wat I'm gonna have tomolo? A guy n gals day out with our Adelaide guests :) Heheee

Eventful was all I can say for all these time spent. Quite fun tho - Ikea, airport, northbridge, Royal Perth... You name it :)

Ok.. a bit of catching up on my life. How was exams u might ask? No papers for me so thats a big thumbs up and yes, I've been free all these while :)

Today started off EARLY for me, with a phone call around 9 ish. Sleeping at 3 yesterday, managed to drag myself off bed to start the day.

Itinery for the day :

1. Help Sylvia move
2. Meet up Jess and gang for Dim Sum
3. Go Royal Perth with WH
4. Koorong to shop
5. Dinner with Winter Camp com
6. Send friend off to airport

After all those were ticked off, I was surprised I still had some energy left in me so Min and I headed for midnight tea - scrumptious coffee and cake at Fast Eddys, prob the only place opened at that time. All energetic after all the sugar, that's when the adventure started.

We drove down to City Beach to drool and admire at the big huge mansion-like houses there beside the sea. Since its beside the sea, we ended up at one of the parking lots overseeing City Beach. With the soft glows of the lamp which lit up the jetty, we could watch the waves flow onto the sandy beach right from where we were. There was a car already parked beside us, and to our surprise there were human beings in it, couple paktoing I assume. Well, it was 1 in the morning and hope we din spoil to much of their alone moments :)

Moving on, we dropped by Cottesloe beach, a famous spot for shooting scenery shots. Google search it and u'll understand why :) Thing was, I have never seen all these places at night before. We bumped into another overseeing-the-beach parking lots and the view was 100 times better than the previous one that we decided to step out of the car to have a look for ourselves. It was after all soo late in the night and no cars were in sight as far as our eyes take us. Paranoid as I am, I parked the car in such a way that we can zoom off anytime. JUST IN CASE. Well, thing is, the JUST IN CASE happened.

As Min was searching for my camera to capture the view, a white ute (hilux, truck like car) went pass the main street. Well, cars + main streets are usual but when it signaled to enter the car park, thats when I started to worry. Shouted at Min, and we hopped into the car and locked the doors. Dat car stopped right behind my car, and if they were there to enjoy the scenery, the could park anywhere else on the big parking lot.

Maybe it was a kind soul that thought we needed help, who knows.

What I know was we zoomed off, and unsatisfied with the glimpse of amazing scenery I saw, I had a brilliant plan off turning off into some random streets so if by any chance if the ute was following us, we'll loose them and we can get back to having some peace when we watched the ocean waves come in. Brilliant plan it was, till I realized the road I turned into was a no through road. N it was a super squeezy road cos of all the cars parked along it. That road was shaped like an upside down U with only one way in out. While driving back doing a round, Min pointed out at something at the end of the road. " Is that a person or is that something there?"

Couldn't see it at first but finally the figure became clearer as we got closer. The guy seemed like he was drunk and 'bobbing' around. Being truly Msian and even more paranoid, "Not good" was all thats stuck in my head. All he had to do was stand in the middle of the road and I woudn't be able to get out or swerve anywhere.

Good thing was, it turned out to be a guy hugging a girl and probably just having an intimate time together I guess. More than relieved to leave them alone, we drove back to where we were. Stepped out, breathed in some sea breeze and lo and behold a WHITE ute had to pass by the main road again (pretty sure its the same one).

Paranoid for the third time, we decided maybe its time to head home. No more fooling around. Driving out the car park, something wheezed by and thinking it was a neighbourhood cat, I stopped only to see a rabbit hop its way across the junction. Super cute lah :) There the couple was in sight again. Girl was on the floor and guy was standing around. Dunno whether they were drunk and God knows what happened next but we had enough adventure for the night.

Chatted our way throughout and now I knw nice pakto places to go in Perth and that maybe, JUST maybe, we shud head for such adventures in a grp with guys next time so we dun need to run and rush off :)

Signin off: Day well spent, looking forward to tomolo :)

Don't like . Don't like . Don't like .

Somebody help!

A lil prayer of mine.

Dear Daddee God, are you trying to lead me somewhere? Or trying to tell me something? Help me have an open heart and open ears to listen and recognize Your voice. Help me surrender my all to You.

Amen.

Our Lahling. Zhu Jiao. Hei mao zhu. Baby. Apek. Rocky.
left us today :(

This post shall be in remembrance of Him,our faithful companion for 10 years.

It feels odd, now that knowing when we go home, there won't be anyone coming up to greet you with an ever happy face, regardless of what we feel or go through.

Rocky has always been there, always ready for a hug whenever I'm down.

Miss ya lots baby
